    • Re: "File not an image" error when inserting files

    Posted by klb21 posts: 2 United States
    Thanks for the reply! I tried to insert a pdf file on the demo site, and the same thing happened there (File is not an image). I also tried with a text file and a zip file, and both of those seemed to be ignored.I am using the "Insert Image" button when editing the page - should I be doing this another way? I didn't see an "Insert File" button, and I haven't found anyplace in the docs that address that.Thanks again for your help (and patience)...:)

    The Choose or upload images button, by default, uses the 
     Plugin Image
    No image specified. One of the following parameters must be set: fileId, randomGalleryId, fgalId, attId or src.
         construct, and will only dipslay images. You should use the Files button (which will use the {file....} plugin) to upload your files. Here's what I see on the Tiki demo site: https://demo.tiki.org/14x/

    If you don't see the Files button on your site, you can simply edit the toolbar and add it. See the docs (https://doc.tiki.org/Toolbar) for details.
